It's a TRD racing engine, that's what I thought Bunta (Takumi's father) said.

it is if you watched the third stage

ummm...I watched Third Stage (about a little over 10 times) and I guess the subtitles that I got doesn't explain it the way the ORIGINAL Initial D The Movie does =P.yes,I downloaded mine on-line..but depending on where and who you download it from,they could have different subtitling and they may miss some words that are in the original..don't worry,that happens all the time.The last time I heard,Takumi had an 4AGZ-E engine or somethin' like that (but that was on a website) and all I know is that it's the same engine put into the newer modeled Truenos,giving them 250 HP,but that's just what I heard ^_^

is that the NA one?

if you look closely at the engine detail when they show it, i didn't see a turbo.

i mite of missed it, but i don't have the subtitles to the movie. all i remember is that Takahashi Ryouske and Takahashi Keiske talked about the NA and turbo differences.

can anyone clear me up on that part?

It's a NA 250HP engine

thanks for clearin' that up Spidey ^_^.I knew it had somethin' to do with 250HP,but I wasn't for sure if it was turbo or not..it didn't sound like it,but I also didn't wanna sound like an idiot by goin' off sayin',"yeah,it's NA" when really,it's not,or somethin' like that...but anyways,no,I'm not callin' you an idiot Spidey,I'm just sayin' ya had more balls than I did dude =P

I have all the episodes of Initial D (except the 3rd Stage) on DiVX... You've got to love the way Bunta (Takumi's dad) customizes the AE86... "That crazy Bunta..."

it's amazing that Takumi is able to control it the way he does,but I guess that's what years of delivering tofu to someone while going through a touge every morning does to you,eh?
